The okay movie from the unbelievable book. If you are a reader, don’t miss the experience of this incredible true story of Louis Zamperini. There is so much incredible narrative that this could have filled an entire season of a TV drama or at least a trilogy of feature films. If you read, please go grab a copy of this book. If not, you will get to experience a small snapshot of one of the greatest stories ever told. The book was an emotional rollercoaster that had me page-turning like no other book ever has. Not easy to watch, but worth the ride. Some very difficult imagery is not suitable for the kids in this one.
